Great place to go for a group to have fun, unwind and relax together, food and drink is satisfactory, but the desserts are surprisingly good!
Staff were friendly but staff count was too minimal to cater to the large incoming crowd on a Sunday afternoon. Placed orders for chicken wings but the food never came. Staff was also patient in explaining to us gameplay rules, and having them to know almost the gameplay of all games in the cafe is something I would say is value-added to our visitation to the cafe.
Very ood experience using this website. Very user friendly and confirmation was made almost immediately by mind cafe. Good job. Thank you for the very nice experience.
Wide variety of board and card games available. Staff are friendly and patient. Easy to make booking for the cafe. Prices are reasonable and affordable.
It is a perfect place to enjoy a variety of games with friends. However, food serving per pax is quite insufficient for most of us.
Service is fast, staff are friendly and patient towards us (10-12 pax). The temperature of the room can be slightly cooler though. Overall experience is still good.
It is a good place for friends to play n enjoy. But food was terrible. Food is salty, prawn not fresh.May want to improve on that
Although we had difficulties asking for assistance from the staff there, it was overall still a good experience. The place is clean and games are fun
It is located at central location . Decent nice place with good amount of games for chill night out with ur girls. Quite attentive staff
A pretty relaxing place for friends to gather and play board games together. Staffs were helpful in teaching instructions for new board games. They also gave recommendations.
Nice place to chill your leisure time away. Can learn more games whilst chatting. Good for group gathering and binding session. Good place to recommend...
Fun time bonding with friends. However, selection of games were very pretty much limited compared to other cafes out there. can improve on that yo!
The staff are friendly and fun. Definitely a recommended place to go. Suggestion: As we will spend long hours there, suggest cafe to improve the cleanliness of toilet , it definitely increase the overall experience.
Staff were very helpful and patient in teaching games. They prvoided recommendations based on the genre you like. There was a wide selection to choose from and free flow drinks is a great plus.
Food was ok and selection of games were great. However, the place seemed a bit run down and the games weren't kept in very good condition.
Whenever we need some help, there were always some helpful staff available to assist with our queries. . . . . . . . .
A good hangout place for big group of friends who are looking to gather and have some fun! We had a great experience with lots of laughter and using our thinking cap.
Staff was friendly and efficient, a wide range of board games to choose from and the price is really reasonable as well! Definitely will be back again!
The staffs are very helpful in introducing the new games that we have never played before to try. They were quick to answer any queries we might have.
Got our table immediately and the servers were attentive! Some games that we wanted to play were already taken so we had to wait for those. Otherwise, it was great!
Service was bad...too little staff, too many customers. Worst, the service staff don't know how to play the games...this is very different from two years ago when I frequent this place.
The food was not too expensive. Somewhat annoying that water was charged at 50 cents per glass but overall $2 an hour is a great deal.
Really fun and lots of variety of board/card games available! Service is pretty good as well, the staff constantly checks on us to see if we need any drink refills. (We ordered the drink package)
The price was very reasonable and the games available look very interesting. But some games didn't have instructions and missing some pieces which made it a bit inconvienient.
A great hangout place for friends. Will defintely visit again. Prices are reasonable, many board games to choose. It can be a bit noisy when crowded
My reservation was at 4pm. Went there but had to wait for almost 40mins because according to them, the previous customers refused to leave. They served us well in the 40mins that we waited, by giving us free titbits and chairs for us to sit and wait. They also sounded nice and apologetic. We thought the service was pretty sincere and good at that time. We finally went in at around 440pm. Had to say, service by the staff was really good in the few hours that we were playing the games. They were patient with our food or drink refill requests and nice and friendly in the coaching of the games. However, at the end of the session, our impression of the cafe changed. We took the 4 hour package so we assumed the games would end at about 845pm. While we were playing the last round of our game at around 830-840pm, someone came to rush us several times to leave (not just to finish up the game). We repeatedly told them that all we needed was a short while more to finish up. We were playing saboteur (those who know the game would know this game wouldn't drag on and on because we have no more cards left to draw and the table was already full of what we have 'built'). We merely needed like a few more mins to finish up the game and this was communicated twice or thrice to the same staff who came many times to ask us to pack up. He told us that he went to ask his manager but we had already exceeded 6mins of grace period (and so we had to pack up immediately). Not even sure how the grace period was calculated because we actually went in at around 440pm after a 40mins wait?! We were shocked because there were many other empty tables around, and we already wasted almost 40mins earlier just waiting for a table (that we had booked). We felt that they were being too calculative on the extra few minutes we needed to finish up the game (especially when there were lots of empty tables nearby). Btw, we are not too sure if it's the same Filipino looking guy (perhaps the 'manager' mentioned by the staff) who served us earlier and who had gotten his staff to rush us off. Would say that we were really turned off by what happened. We're happy with the previous few times we went but this time round it was really quite a disappointing experience. Don't think we would go back to the cafe again.
The staff there were courteous and service was very good. The games were really enjoyable and I had a lot of fun with my friends.
Some board games were really confusing and lacking the instruction sheet. However, the staff was really helpful and explained and guided us through the game. (:
Friendly service , wide range of board games. I would go to the place more for the games than food, but that's their specialty.Certainly worth another go!
The service was Good. Staffs are friendly but i feel that they should understand the games well enough for them to teach us since they are working there frequently, I assume.
The selection of games is not bad, and they have quite a few of the old classics and across a wide age range so it was fun for my two nieces (5yo and 2yo). The food however was quite a lot less than desirable and the mustiness of the place seriously needs to be looked at.
Staff is very friendly and helpful. Will teach us games that we do not know how to play. Introduce to us new games that are available as well.
Fun place for group gatherings wth a variety of board games. Had so much fun with friends. Will always come back here again for more games!
Double thumbs up for recommendation! Place can be easily found. Staffs are very friendly & accomodating. Food is served quickly & very affordable place to hang out with friends! :)
It was a very fun experience. Since there was only 2 of us, we were lost as to what to play. We seemed advise from the game staff and they advised us accordingly and gave us very clear instructions on the game and even checked up on us after a while. Great service and the good food to keep us going too 😊
The experience was good. Lots of games to choose from to play. Would have been great if the whole place had the sofa seats and not only one small section.
Fun, exciting and wide range of board games to play. Great place to hang out and chill with a group of friends. Do check it out :)
Service was good, and since we were unfamiliar with most of the games, we were taught how to play the games by the staff, and we had a lot of fun!
Staff was friendly and allowed me in early though my booking was for 8pm (I reached an hour early). Food was reasonable (could have had more sauce for my tom yam pasta!), but free flow drinks was awesome. Friends and I had a chill time of playing and enjoying ourselves. Staff was sweet to play happy birthday song for my friend when the cake came out (they even prepared the candle though I totally forgot abt it).
The staff are friendly and approachable and environment are considered a bit too noisy especially everyone is enjoying with the game. Toilet room should have 2 to avoid long waiting time. Overall are quite ok.
My friends and I had enjoyed our experience there. The booking app is user-friendly and simple, and Minds had no trouble finding our reservations quickly and assigning us to a table. Thank you!!
It was fun althought some of the games weren't in the best condition, my friends amd I enjoyed nevertheless and the staff were friendly and complied to our requests happily as well.
A good place to hangout with friends. Alot of board game choices. A place to chill. Worth going. Now i had scheduled a second visit
The service was Excellent . There was a friendly waiter who patiently taught us how to play a game. He taught us how to play for two rounds until we got the rules right.
The assistants there were really very helpful. Though, I think they were seriously short of hands, cos there were times when we needed their assistance but they were busy attending to other gamers and there were only two of them around at that point of time. One to serve drinks and food while the others are busy with cashiering and lending assistance to gamers, patiently explaining to gamers on rules of different games played in the cafe.
I booked the reservation quite last minute on the day itself, but they are still able to arrange a table for 8pax! They even make the extra effort to remind us about the reservation despite the crowd in the cafe! Good job!
Amazing time and great service yet again! Definitely looking forward to visiting this outlet (:
Very fun and entertaining. Had a very good laugh with friends. Will definitely come back again and have more fun. Young and old will really enjoy as there is a game for everyone.
A cheaper option to have fun in a comfortable and cozy cafe. The objective is not to dine in typical cafes but play games, talk loudly and be yourselves just like being at home. A good place to chill.
Food is good, might need some painting works to be done for the place as the whole place look kinda "old". But overall, it is still a great experience.
